THE TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 25. Decrees of Dame Fashion Fashions from Over the Sea Nowhere do we see the tight-fitted garments of some years back. What is spoken of as close is anything but snug, a looseness obtains. A princess gown that has a draped sash will not have the sash confine the figure, but will be sewn high on the skirt of the dress. Although stocks are higher and fit neatly about the neck, many women wear for afternoon and evening no stock at all. The return of the Dutch neck is matter for congratulation among stout women, and unless the throat is very scrawny indeed the half low neck is quite attractive, although the right point must be chosen, neither too low nor too high. Speaking of our stout sisters, we would warn against the selection of tight bodices, the bolero properly cut and trimmed is much better. The women of avurdupois may be glad for the long skirt, too, but should not affect, if she is short as well as stout. OF WINE-RED CLOTH. one abnormally long for her height. We yet remember with amusement the appearance of a lady whose train seemed to measure more inches than her height. This is ridiculous. 1 Everybody wants one good cloth costume, and the design given here is an admirable one, a costume of winered cloth trimmed with velvet of darker shade; just touches of the velvet, no broad trimming. The skirt is very long, the coat one of the loose close ones referred to above. Notice that the sleeves, too, are long, and we would mention that the latest importations from a Paris house suggest an abatement of the crazie for the short A gown we once would have spoken of as "Frenchy" would have been artfully complex, had difficult trimmings introduced here and there, just saved from fussiness by the skill of its creator; but to-day all this is changed, the distinctly Parisian gown is noted for simplicity, a beautiful simplicity that means most intelligent knowledge of "line." To-day the best importations from Paris are marked by the indescribable "line," and are almost severe in their plainness. The dressmaker must labor until she has got for her patron such hang and fit that both can be pronounced becoming, graceful—which FOR EVERYDAY WEAR. will mean the desirable attainment of "line." But again "lines" are new-fashioned and old-fashioned, and to tell the truth it is a bit hard to assert just what are modish, for there exists considerable dissension in the ranks of the good gown makers. When doctors disagree there is trouble enough—but when the gownmakers! You may appear long-waisted and swollen, or with almost equal approval you may affect the Josephine short waist. Skirts generally, it is a comfort to say, are plain and straight up and down, and for evening we have returned to the small train. Some dressmakers keep to the square shoulders and puffed-up sleeves, others have brought back the drooping shoulder and drooping sleeve. Girdles are worn as dead as ever, and also there is no girdle or belt at all, the princess models much used. We can affirm nothing save that there is wide latitude in styles. Getting to solid ground, the subject of the ever-faithful shirt-waist, we call attention to the neat model in the accompanying illustration. The deep yoke front and back is fitted by a shoulder seams, three small tucks extend down the center of the back; and there are three tucks either side the front, the stitched only half-way down. In the box-plait of the front button holes are worked through which a soft silk tie may be passed. The sleeves are on the bishop order and finished with pointed cuffs. For In Union There Is Strength. sleeve in the street suit. The conjecture tricorne hat is of felt trimmed with velvet and feathers. A glimpse of white lingerie at the neck gives a dainty finish to the charming costume. Boleros are extremely short in the back and pretty long in the front as a rule. This is a kindly trick to conceal deficiencies of the figure, to soften angularities and to conceal too great embonpoint. It is a style we may call generally becoming. A colorful season is upon us, a colorful season is to succeed. The favorite shades are hard to determine; but we may mention that peacock blue has strong hold both in millinery and frock materials. It should not be used too generously, a little is much better than a great deal. We recently had our attention called to a lovely combination, a white matinee coat worn with chinchilla furs and a hat of peacock tones. It was "different," wherefore one element of its attractiveness. And now we have spoken of matinee apparel, we are moved to tell of a pretty little dress we saw the other afternoon at the theater. It was one of the old-rose cloth costumes that have been noticeable this winter, but this one was especially dainty and very becoming to the dark-halred girl who wore it. The skirt was a princess with a high girdle, the upper part of the bodice a flowered silk muslin, old rose with elaborations in dull browns and greens. The muslin was fashioned with much fluffiness, and gave a dressy look to what might have been a rather plain costume. The hat was covered with plumes of rosy hue, shading from pink to wine red. A plain little shirt-waist suit of sill or wool may be transformed by the addition of a belt of gold tinsel or Pompadour ribbon. A little Persian trimming is very effective on a utilitarian trock. It should be unnecessary to mention that trim stock and cuffs are a dainty finish not to be neglected, but often this important detail is omitted. There is decided tendency toward relieving the former plainness of the shirt-waist suit, and the favorite means is by use of a fitted girdle on the waist, which is worn outside of the skirt. Many of the new models look like fancy jacket suits, the waist so trimmed as to simulate a jacket. The very latest in waists is the dyed lace blouse, the pale pinks and blues perhaps most prominent. There are also some navy blue ones shown and probably the fancy will grow to such an extent the lace will be dyed to suit individual taste. Personally we do not care much for the fashion. this blouse it takes three and a half yards of material 28 inches wide. yards of material 28 inches wide. Last summer the shirt-waist suit was not quite so much in fashion as the jacket suit, a blouse of thin material favored. It would now seem that the shirt-waist suit in wash materials is to return to favor the coming season; and so many get ready their spring and summer frocks during the inclement weather of late winter and early spring, we think it well to touch on advance fashions. A fancy that promises to appeal, is that of combining a lingerie waist with the material used in the skirt, thus making a costume and keeping to something a little dressier than the plain shirt-waist suit. And this is to be recommended, as the fine sheer materials combine so effectively with heavier ones. For house gowns dainty lawn berthas and chemisettes will be preferred to lace or embroidery. Walk. More than 1,000 women in eastern Hancock county earn money for Christmas presents and winter clothing by knitting woven nippers which are used by the winter fishermen who sail out from Gloucester, Mass. A fisherman's nipper is a heavy wool mitt with a short wrist and with a thick protection for the thumb and forefinger and a padded palm. It was designed for protecting the hands of fishermen who haul wet lines in cold weather. Fully 50,000 pairs of nippers are worn out every year, of which more than 75 per cent. are knitted by women who live in the shore towns east of Penobscot river. As a rule, a woman with active fingers can knit four pairs of nippers a day in addition to doing her housework. A smart knitter can use up a greater length of yarn than she can cover in walking along a good road, her fingers outstripping her feet in a ratio of seven to five. She is counted a poor knitter who cannot knit up a mile of yarn while she is walking a mile, though when a person keeps her eyes upon the flying needles all the time walking is more from feeling than from sight, and consequently slow. The women carry their knitting work about them, no matter what they are doing. At evening prayer-meetings it is not unusual for a woman to knit across a nipple before she can rise to give her testimony when called upon by the class leader. Cases are known in which women have taken their knitting to funerals though near relatives of the deceased are barred from this privilege. As the communities are strictly orthodox, no knitting is done on Sundays. The niper business furnishes good revenues to railroads, steamboats and stages and involves an expenditure of about $10,000 a year. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1906. FRESH OHIO NEWS.

A Remarkable Career for So Young a Man—Really Interesting. One of Kansas' Most Successful Members of the Race—Elected Clerk of Court and County Attorney. Mr. W. L. Sayres was born in Richardson county, Nebraska, during the early seventies. He attended the schools of that state and moved with his parents to Nicodemus, Kansas, in 1887. In 1894 he moved to Hill City, Kan., where he married Miss Sarah T. Bates, one year later. In 1895 Mr. Sayres was elected clerk of the court of Graham county and served two terms with credit. It was during his term of office as clerk that he felt a HON. W. L. SAYRES. desire for the law. He was admitted to the bar in 1898 and graduated as a special student from the law department of Kansas State university two years later. On returning to Hill City in 1901, Mr. Sayres was nominated and elected county attorney of Graham county, and has the record of being one of the best county attorneys in the history of his county. At the age of 30 years he could boast of being one of the best public elected, by the people. This record is without precedent in the history of that and many other counties of the country. In December 1902, just before retiring from the attorney's office, Mr. Sayres embarked in business and today does the largest business of any mercantile house in Hill City. While not actively engaged in the practice of law, he does special work for a number of his form, clients, and is attorney for the American State bank, of which he is the president of this world's goods, among his possessions being a 400 acre tract of the best land in his county. He is courteous, exceedingly modest and easily the most prominent Afro-American in western Kansas. "UNDERGROUND RAILROAD." A Little Interesting Ohio History Anent It. Toledo, O.—When the so-called "underground railroad" was in full operation there were more than 20 routes through Ohio along which slaves fleeing to Canada might be forwarded by sympathizers, from the Ohio river to the northern frontier of the United States. Every port on Lake Erie, from Conneaut to Toledo, was a point of embarkation, during the season of navigation. More than once fugitives crossed the western end of the lake on the fee in midwinter. Pow of the murmurs were ever captured. They always moved north by night and nearly always were guided by men perfectly familiar with the roads and the whole neighborhood. They were sheltered in barns, attics, corn cribs, even in caves, sometimes, and guarded against surprise by sympathizers who were exceedingly watchful. The "stations" on the routes across Ohio were in communities which were strongly anti-slavery, and officers pursuing fugitives were obstructed in many ways. They accomplished little, as a rule. The journey across Ohio averaged only about 200 miles, from the river to the lake. The points along the Ohio at which slaves were started to work, were manned 22 or 23 and from some crossing places there were alternative routes. The "underground" roads began operations in Ohio as far back as 1815 or 1817. The they did not go out of use till the civil war. It is not known why they were so invaded by them to freedom. It is certain that there were many thousands. GOODLER-CASEY WEDDING A Brilliant Affair—Obituary Notices—Social, Personal and Church Notes. Dayton, O.—Dr. H. M. M. Porter is located in Bell hotel.

Lynching and Mob Law in South Carolina Must be Prevented Says Governor. Columbia, S. C.-Gov. D. C. Heyward, in his message submitted to the general assembly of South Carolina recently, urges more stringent measures for the prevention of lynchings. "While we have every reason for encouragement," said the governor, the recent killing of defenseless armored mob members every reason to be deplored and condemned. Such outrages are not only flagrant and inexecutable, but they inevitably lead to the disregard of all law, the cheapening of human life and undermining of our very civilization. "The lawless element must be made to realize the sanctity of human life. They must be taught the fearful consequences that follow the blind passions and prejudices of mobs which take the law into their own hands; them life mining have ever guaranteed in our constitution, and lawless and reckless violators must be prosecuted without fear or favor to the utmost limit of the law."

The Great Lawyer Who so Successfully Led the Fight to Uphold the Constitutionality of Our Ohio Anti-Lynching Law. Urbana, O.—Col. George M. Echelberger, aged 62 one of the foremost members of the Champaign county county, died suddenly at his apartments at the Douglass Inn last week Thursday afternoon.

The Champion Fighter Says He Is Sure of Victory in Battle With Mike (Twin) Sullivan. San Francesco, Cal.-Joe Gans got a warm reception at Colma last week Friday night when he appeared in Willie Fitzgerald's corner. The Afro-American marvel looked the picture of good health. Gans certainly shows he has been working hard and he is immediately pleased with his condition. I cannot remember when I felt so well," said he, "and I cannot imagine how I can lose in my present good condition. This is one battle that I have trained for and I am going to win, sure. No one could tempt me not to try, so you can rest assured that I will do my level best and I know everybody will say I did when the contest is over. Just put a bet on me." The lightweight champion said he had gained a pound in his weight and that he was now at 137, but that this would come off, and he thought that when it came time for him to weigh in he would be at the 155-pound note. Mike (Twin) Sullivan is equally certain he will win, and as he is the speediest man who has been seen here lately, this battle should be a fine one. Mike expects Gans to blow up after ten rounds or so of fighting. Others have done the same thing—to their sorrow. Olean, N. Y., Notes.

The editor of the News wrote us recently in defense of his papers' using the word "coon" saying that until performers and the different Afro-American show management cease referring to themselves as "coons" and "coon shows" respectively, newspapers cannot be justly criticised for alluding to them in precisely the same terms which they themselves employ. He might have added also that the readers of the various daily newspapers who dislike their use of the insulting mongrel terms have the right to discontinue their purchase of sald newspapers, something they ought to do in practice. Then too, Leader and News voluntarily use and somewhat like insulting terms in referring to our people for which performers and show management are not responsible. None but low grade individuals or newspapers indulge in the use of any such insulting mongrel terms as "coon", "darkey", "dutch", "mick", "sheeny", "dago", etc. in referring to the varl- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1906. our classes of peoples or members thereof.

Davis wrote the editor of The Gazette the following letter: "Yesterday for the first time, I saw my alleged statement in the Cleveland Leader to which you refer in your letter. The reporter for the Leader misinterpreted my statements. I stated to him that the colored people of the south need to be educated and if they were not, it would be better were they together so that they might obtain an education. And I further said that President Roosevelt was in a position now, in the estimation of the south so that he could bring about an adjustment problem, take it that the colored people of Cleveland that I am their friend and have always been ever since I have taken any part in public life. I surely would not at this late date speak unkindly of a race of people that have been my friends. I have always sympathized with them in the struggle they have had to make and have, whenever the opportunity presented itself, urged that they be given better opportunities. Hoping that this statement will be sufficient to convince you that I occupy the same position with reference to the people that I always have in the past, I am, with best wishes, Yours truly.

In address before the York State Press Association in few years Daniels made the point that the railroad is the advance agent of commerce, and that railway advertising had been of immense value to American manufacturers, who have whole world to the excellent work done by our inventors and mechanics, as illustrated in the Empire State Express, the great trains that connect the east with the great trains that connect the east with the west; the average foreignigner arguing that the men who are able to turn out such machines must be able to build anything, and that the industrial machinery made in America, must be of the very best quality.

Miss Clara Logan, and Queen Tiamata, of the Asbury Park baby parade, sat try a log fire telling stories of children, relat the Washington Post. "A lady," she declared on a couch in her library one night, with the light low, trying in vain to go to sleep. Beside her, on a table, was a dish of fine meat. "As she lay there she saw her little daughter tiptoe into the room in her long white nightgown. The child, thinking her mother asleep, advanced cautiously to the table, took a bunch of grapes, and stole out. "The mother was grieved at such mis conduct on the part of her good little daughter, but she said nothing. The mother was back into the room again crept the child, the grapes in her hand and untouched. She replaced them on the dish, and as she depar- ted her mother heard her mutter: "That's the time you got left, Mr. Devil." Important Movement in Advertising. The creation of a General Advertising Department for the New York Central Lines, and the placing in charge of that department the veteran railroad advertiser, George H. Daniels, who has been a senior Agent of the New York Central Railroad, marks an era in the history of advertising in America. The New York Central Lines are the first great system to create an advertising network, and the ways in their system, and the far-reaching consequences of such a movement cannot be appreciated at first sight, but this action on the part of the management of these lines emphasizes the value of advertising generally, and forces the conclusion of railroad advertising in particular. Some idea of the importance of this new department can be had when it is understood that it will control the general affairs of the countries of the New York Central, Boston and Albany, Lake Shore and Michigan Southern, Michigan Central, Cleveland, Indiana, Chicago and the Ohio, and Lake Huron and Western railway, and their leased lines, having their western terminals at Chicago, St. Louis and Cincinnati, and their eastern terminals at New York, Boston and Montreal, and eminent cities of the best equipped railway in the world. Every legitimate newspaper and magazine publication in America will have a direct department in the New York Central Department of the New York Central Lines, and every advertising agent on the continent will take a new lease of life by signing an endorsement of the value of advertising.

They are astonished when their stomach begins to trouble them seriously. They had been eating hurriedly and irregularly for a long time, to be sure, but they supposed their stomachs quite used to that. Some people know that the strength which the weak stomach needs, and for the lack of which the whole body is suffering, can be found surely and quickly in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In hundreds' instances these pills have succeeded, often with a victim's "my indigestion," said Mr. J. R. Miller, of Dayton, Va., "came in the first place from the fact that the years ago I worked a great deal at night, and ate at any odd hour whenever the chance at, and always very hurried. One day I was a victim of terrible dyspepsia. It kept me miserable all the time for several years. "I always had a great deal of distress after eating, and when I got up from my sleep my stomach would be so weak that it would hardly take any food. I had very uncomfortable feelings about my heart, and was dizzy and, whenever I stooped over and then straightened up, I was very scared. I "read the statements of several persons who had got rid of obstinate stomach troubles by using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I bought some and they did me a world of good. They acted promptly and did just what was claimed for them. I have no more distress after meals; the bad feeling has gone from the region of my heart; the alarming dizzy spells have disappeared, and I am still scared.

Son of Erin Knew He Was in the Wrong Place by Letters on the wall At the recent election, owing to the lack of proper accommodations, it was found necessary, relates the New York Times, to use the rooms of the American Pleasure association as a polling place for our jury law. The district it happened on the first registration day that a little old, weakered son of Erin (a newly-made citizen) strolled in the courtroom, and the insincere individual, and the insincere institution found it a very difficult task to extract from him suitable replies to the usual questions, the old fellow displaying keen resentment and taking much unkindness toward the institution required qualifying him as a voter. Soon the chairman of the board and the old chap were exchanging compliments relative to the institution, and facial appearance of not too flattering a nature. Suddenly in the midst of his mistreatment with the chairman, the exclaimed Irishman stopped and, with his eyes flashing, threw his clay pipe anguely upon the floor, and with his eyes blazing fire brought his fist down upon the table with a bang as he shouted. I knew his wasn't the right place! I knew something was wrong! It's a trap I've fallen into! And there's the proof: he added, shaking his head, laughed. The inspectors quickly turned. A smile flickered across their faces. On the wall, painted in great, big yellow letters, was the club's emblem. "A, P. A." Don't Wait. Hanna, Wyo., Jan. 15th (Special)—Delays are dangerous.

Colliers, Maltsters and Sugar Workers Constantly in Danger of Utter Demolition from This Cause. Coal is the carbonized remains of tree mosses. Oddly enough, these mosses were the big forefathers of the moss we know as lycopodium, which in a powdered state is used to produce flash signals. This will help to give an idea of the intensely inflammable nature of coal dust, says Pearson's Weekly. Some of the best coal in the world is cut from what is known as the Merthyr four-foot seam, and this seam is one of the dustiest in the world. It is a terrible fact that over 1,600 men have lost their lives on this seam in the last half century. Some years ago one of the inspectors of mines conducted a number of experiments on the explosive power of coal dust. A disused shaft 150 feet deep was chosen for the purpose. Samples of dust from different collieries were collected for the purpose. When two hundredweight of dust was emptied down a shaft and a charge of gunpowder fired the result was startling. Huge tongues of flame 60 feet in height shot up from the mouth of the shaft and enormous columns of smoke rose high in the air, forming a great black palp over the scene of the explosion. On the other hand, when high explosives were used, no effect at all was produced on the dust. But colliers are not the only workers who have to dread dust dangers. Almost every kind of dust which is composed of inflammable material will explode when touched by a naked light. Maltsters are often heavy sufferers in this way, for malt dust is shockingly explosive. One of the biggest disasters of this kind in recent years was the complete destruction of the premises of the Ipswich Malting company. These were six stories high, 700 feet long and 50 wide, and they were completely gutted by a malt explosion, which set fire to them. There were 20,000 quarters of grain in the building at the time, and the damage was estimated at £50,000. Messrs. Whitbread suffered in a similar manner, a large building near the Barbican used for grinding malt having been badly damaged. In this case the cause of the fire is said to have been the spontaneous combustion of the malt dust which was suspended in the air. The careless housemaid who uses the contents of the sugar basin to light the fire knows that nothing burns more easily than powdered sugar. Proprietors of large sweetmeat factories have learned that there is danger from this source. In 1888 a serious sugar explosion took place in a Boston candy factory. It originated in a room where marshmallows were being made. These sweets are coated with finely pulverized sugar, and the atmosphere was hot and dry, and laden with this finely divided dust. Two girls were badly hurt and the premises fired by the explosion. In the manufacture of linoleum no unprotected lights are allowed in the mixing department. This is on account of the great danger of exploding the cork dust floating in the air. An additional danger in linoleum making is that the mixture of cement and cork dust has the unpleasant property of spontaneously igniting. It is therefore, customary to mix the material a sackful at a time in order to reduce the risks of an explosion. Early English Football. The American game, however, can hardly be more violent than was the game as originally played in England, if we may judge from the denunciations of its enemies. According to Sir Thomas Elyot, a baronet of the time of the Tudors, the game consisted of "nothing more beastile furie and extreme violence," while Stubbes, the Puritan, describes it as a "bloody and Murhering practice" and a "devilish business altogether." The fact that many players are injured seems to him no marvel: "For they have the sleights to meet one betwixt two, and to dash him against the heart with their elbows, to but him under the short ribs with their clenched fists, and with their knees to catch him on the hip or pitch him on the neck, with a hundred such murhering devices." It is not easy to believe that matters can be worse than that even in the United States.—Westminster Gazette. Discovered. After the little girl had seriously studied the matter for a long time, she looked up to inquire of her maiden aunt: "Is it true that women shouldn't marry men who are younger than themselves?" "Yes, dear. A woman should always be careful to marry only a man who is older than she." "Oh, now I know why you've never got married. You can't find a man who is older, can you?"—Chicago Record-Herald. Ancient Libraries So far as existing records show, the oldest approximation to libraries was brought to light by the Assyrian discoveries in the form of Babylonian books inscribed on clay tablets. They are supposed to have been prepared for public instruction about 650 B. C. Pisilistratus is said to have founded a library at Athens about 537 B. C., but there is no clear evidence to that effect. According to Strabo, Aristotle was the first known collector of a library, and bequeathed it to Theophractus. B.

The Greatest Wheat Crop of the Continent. The year that has just closed has done a great deal towards showing the possibilities of Western Canada from an agricultural standpoint. The wheat crop has run very near to the 100,000,000 bushel limit that was looked upon as too sanguine an estimate only a short time ago, and the area that has been broken to fall wheat for the coming harvest will go a long way towards enabling the farmers of the West to overlap on the 100,000,000 bushel estimate next year. And while the spring and winter wheat have been doing so well during the past few years, the other cereals have been keeping up with the procession. Rye and barley have made immense strides, and peas and flax have been moving steadily along. Dairying, also, has been successfully carried on in the new provinces, and in every stage the farmer has been "striking it rich." To such an extent has the success of the West taken hold of outsiders that the rush of Americans to Saskatchewan and Alberta, which was looked upon as marvelous last year, bids fair to be largely exceeded in 1906, and as there are still millions of acres of free home-steads available, which the building of the new railways will render accessible to the markets, new wheat lands will be opened up ere long. Amongst the first to avail himself of the opportunity presented will be the American settler. In a large number of American cities Dominion Government Agents are located, who are able and willing to give the latest and best information in regard to the new districts which the railways will open up, and there will be no abatement of the rush to the Canadian prairies during the coming season. Some time since a poet in the columns of the Toronto "Star" had the following stirring lines, which throb of the Western spirit: There's a sir in the alr, there's a thrill through the land, there's a movement toward the Great West; And the eyes of all men for the moment are turned to the country that we love for. 'For its Canada's day in the world's calendar, and to this merry toast let us sup; "Here's to the land, the young giant of the North, where the prairies are opening up" They come from the East and they come from the South—they come o'er the deep rolling sea. They once came for they know they will dwell "neath a flag that makes all met equal and free. Then, once more the toast, and let every man rise, and cheer he he sips from the cup. "Here's to the land, the young giant of the North, where the prairies are opening up" HOW KINGS HAVE DIED. Henry I. of gluttony. Edward VI. of a decline. Charles I. on the scaffold. George III. as he lived—a madman. Henry VIII. of carbuncles, fat and fury. George IV. of gluttony and drunkenness. Henry VII. wasted away, as a miser ought. James I. of drinking and the effects of vice. Charles II. suddenly, it is said, of apopiexy. Henry II. of a broken heart, occasioned by the bad conduct of his children. William III. of consumptive habits of body, and from the stumbling of his horse. Edward III. of dotage, and Richard II. of starvation, the very reverse of George IV. Henry VI. in prison, by means known then only to the jailer, and now known only in Heaven. William the Conqueror from enormous fat, from drink and from the violence of his passions. Henry IV. is said to have died of "fits caused by uneasiness," and uneasiness in palaces in those times was a very common complaint. LOST Throug Some people question the statements that coffee hurts the delicate nerves of the body. Personal experience with thousands proves the general statement true and physicians have records of great numbers of cases that add to the testimony. The following is from the Rockford, Ill. Register-Gazette: Dr. William Langhorst of Aurora has been treating one of the queerest cases of lost eyesight ever in history. The patient is O. A. Leach of Beach county, and in the last four months he had doctored with all of the specialists about the country and has at last returned home with the fact impressed on his mind that his case is incurable. A portion of the optic nerve has been ruined, rendering his sight so limited that he is unable to see anything before him, but he can see plain anything at the side of him.

Whole Foot Nothing But Proud Flesh—Had to Use Crutches—"Cuticura Remedies the Best on Earth." "In the year 1899 the side of my right foot was cut off from the little toe down to the heel, and the physician who had charge of me was trying to sew up the last my whole foot and way up above my calf was nothing but proud flesh. I suffered untold agonies for four years, and tried different physicians and all kinds of contents, I could wear with Cuticura. In two weeks afterwards saw a change in my limb. Then I began using Cuticura Soap and Ointment often during the day and kept it up for seven months, when my limb was healed up just of Cicura as if I had trekked eight months now since I stopped using Cuticura Remedies, the best on God's earth.

Taylor, in the Chicago Tribune, is the letter that weat forward to a new customer of the have been but few cases of its kind before, and they have been caused by whisky or tobacco. Leach has never used either, but has been a great coffee drinker, and the specialists have decided that the case has been caused by this. Leach stated himself that for several years he had drank three cups of coffee for breakfast, two at noon and one at night. According to the records of the specialists of this country this is the first case ever caused by the use of coffee. The nerve is ruined beyond aid and his case is incurable. The fact that makes the case a queer one is that the sight forward has been lost and the side sight has been retained. According to the doctor's statement, the young man will have to give up coffee or the rest of his sight will follow and the entire nerve be ruined. Register-Gazette.

JAMES VICK'S SONS 451 Main St. Rochester, N. Y. EDUCATIONAL ERRATA The retirement of Dr. William A. Packard is Kennedy education and the science of language at Princeton marks the close of 35 years of active teaching. Granta, the Cambridge undergraduate organ, urges reform in the English university education. It says: 'Rendered unfit for business, the only places open for the graduates are schoolmastering and the church, and in the uttermost parts of the earth are to be found graduates of Oxford and Cambridge, now become laborers, beggars and outcasts.' Prof. E. W. Clark, of Ripon college, Wisconsin, has been honored by the bureau of university travel in Rome in a manner which will make it possible for him to go abroad each summer and secure a new stock of material for the lectures he is delivering. He has been engaged to conduct the teachers' excursions to the homes of the ancients and will spend the next ten years in this manner. A step has been taken toward the organized athletic training of American schoolgirls by the forming of a girl's branch of the Public School's Athletic league, of New York city, Speaking of this movement, Miss Grace Dodge said that the methods of training must be different from those applied to the boys. A prize of $50 was offered by Mrs. Henry Siegel for the best method of combining the essentials of moral and athletic discipline.
